According to their website the vets at Parkside in Dundee are not recognised as specialists. That does not in any way mean that they are not competent. Sadly the tiers of qualifications within the Vet profession are far from clear. If you want to see a properly accredited specialist then they will be listed as such on the RCVS register (link below). Whilst this may seem pedantic, this is the only way to find out if the vet has been trained by a specialist to a high level and have reached a specific standard and passed a rigorous exam process, rather than being potentially self taught with moderate levels of assessment.So far we are to see a vet at parkside in dundee but will take it from there, i thank you for getting back to us and providing advice!
